Hi Anthony,

WindowEyes 4.21 and Jaws 4.5 work very well with echoLink.  The only thing
that doesn't speak automatically is the station's call sign that connects to
you.  Control O opens an edit box in which you can type the station's call
whith whom you'd like to connect.  The menus are very windows like and give
me know trouble.

I did think of one thing that doesn't read in the menus.  If you go to tools
and then to preferences, under the signals tab, the buttons do not speak
their labels, but you only have to set these up once.  Every pair of buttons
have a radial button connected with them.  These radial buttons do speak and
set all of them to default.  I think that the only one that was not checked
by default was the over sound and I find that sound very valuable.  Tapping
the space bar alternately turns transmit on and off.  If you tap transmit
while someone else is talking, nothing happens.

Jaws reads the station list that shows up when you run echoLink, WindowEyes
does not, but I don't use the station list much as it takes too long to find
someone that way.  The control O or control F commands work much better for
that!

Sure you can trust the government!  Just ask an Indian!

Hi Everyone;

I apologize because, I know this topic has been discussed before.
